Cedars-Sinai's Minimally Invasive Gynecologic Surgery Center sets itself apart from programs at other institutions by providing patients and their gynecologists with specially-trained gynecologic surgeons who are experts in minimally invasive surgery. The center creates an atmosphere of exceptional care providing women with innovative, leading-edge options when gynecological surgery is necessary and helping to manage their care when it's not.

Featured Treatment

Treating Uterine Fibroids

Uterine fibroids, which can cause pain, heavy menstrual bleeding, infertility and miscarriages, account for some 40 percent of the hysterectomies performed in the U.S. each year. Until recently, 70 percent of these procedures were performed with an abdominal incision requiring several weeks of recovery. Today we have better options.

Featured Procedure

Laparoscopic Hysterectomy

Cedars-Sinai physicians perform hysterectomies laparoscopically at more than double the national average, and we're only one of few centers that offer laparoscopic options for the removal of fibroids. These procedures, which require only a few small incisions, allow for shorter hospital stays, less pain, and faster recovery times.
